Home Purchase Problem — HOA fining me for political sign

I'm in a difficult situation and trying to figure out my next steps.

HOA fining me for political sign. I've been dealing with this for about 15 months now and the situation isn't improving.

I have been in this property for 6 years. My monthly rent is $3,694. I have a written lease.

Should I hire a lawyer for this or try to handle it myself?

NAL, but from what I've read, you should check your state's specific laws. That said, definitely get a lawyer to look at the specifics.

The biggest mistake people make in this situation is hiring an attorney to send the initial letter. I'd recommend being patient with the process instead.

I had a similar issue and ended up consulting with an attorney. It was worth the $200-300 for the initial consultation just to understand my rights.

Have you tried reaching out to your state's consumer protection office? They sometimes have free resources or mediation services.
